Why do we have negative Nancy’s about trading for #1?

[TheBigKat]

You’re really worked over DJ Moore who’s basically a smidge better than Gabe Davis?

 

WRs can be had as FAs or cheap trades, in fact I’m glad we kept a third 1st round pick!!!

 

in case you’ve missed, we haven’t had a solid QB1 since 2018, 4 years of disastrous QB play

 

 instead of hoping or settling Carolina got aggressive and I’m honestly surprised at the trade package we didn’t give up more.

This site is a beautiful reminder that nothing will ever be perfect. We won't ever all agree on something. And that's life.

I can see it now, it's 11pm EST Super Bowl evening - Stroud is raising the Lombardi. I'm on the huddle 30 beers deep...and what do you know - someone comments "most boring super bowl ever lol" "that's the only one we'll get until blah blah blah".

The way I look at it is that we traded away two first round picks for the number one pick.  The other stuff isn't really all that worrisome - including DJ Moore.

You're going to give any first round rookie QB at least two years anyway.  By the time we find out what our rookie has (or doesn't have) we'll have a first round pick again.  I just don't see the problem.

We did really good. We only gave up 1 first rounder. We still have a high second this year. We still have all our picks next year besides the first rounder. Then we only gave up a 5th rounder in 2025. And DJ is easily replaceable. I don't think we got robbed like so many are saying. We have our choice of QB and control the draft

I can see it. "Can't believe yall are excited about a one and done Superbowl team.  We should have tanked to assure multiple Lombardis."   Some people are never happy.

But we only traded away 1 first round pick. We just swapped firsts this year. We only lose 1 first

I'm not completely blown away about it but it's fun and that's the point. 

Panthers huddle is like a canoe packed full of baboons. Every ripple that hits the canoe is going to cause a monkey fight on that canoe. So a wave like this is bound to create reactions.

I believe op is talking about me.

I hate mortaging our future on the unknown. QB's are a crap shoot every once in awhile you get that stud like Cam or Luck but none of those type of guys are available.

Is it really that hard to understand that we gave up too much in a draft that doesn't have a QB prospect that is worth said cost?

Exactly!

[jasonluckydog]

We could end up with a Vince Young or Zach Wilson, no thanks. The 49ers picked a stud last year in the final pick .

[jasonluckydog]

 I wanted a vet qb like Carr and see what this staff can do with a player like Corral.

So there’s a couple things here. I loved moving to 1. Wasn’t so happy about losing DJ. If replacing WRs was so easy we would have a better WR room even outside of DJ these past few years.
